Recruiters named three main trends that will determine the development of the labor market in Russia

A hybrid work format, the continuity of staff training and greater demands on working conditions are the main trends in the development of the labor market for the coming years. This is stated by a joint study by the hh.ru platform and the Yakov and Partners company among current employees and applicants.

Three quarters of those surveyed are convinced of the exceptional importance of continuous employee training over the next seven years. 57% of respondents noted that Russians see the need to retrain in hard skills. However, only 15% of job seekers are willing to retrain completely on their own; The majority expect help from businessmen for this.

More than a third of respondents expect an increase in the proportion of employees working in a hybrid format. Approximately half of those surveyed trust the effectiveness of this work format on work productivity. Marketing specialists (66%) and employees in sales and service departments (65%) are the most convinced of greater efficiency.

Job seekers also pointed to a shorter working week and working day as one of the main trends in the development of the labor market in the coming years. According to the results of the study, about 10% of companies are exploring this opportunity, but half of the respondents who have already worked in this format reported an increase in their efficiency.

1.5 thousand current employees of organizations and job seekers participated in the study.
